Then you have to specify the shell executable as FileName and the command
line (current FileName + Arguments) as Arguments

I told you to use UseShellExecute = true, but you used UseShellExecute =
false so it's because of you.:) When UseShellExecute = true shell will be
executed.

As you cannot use UseShellExecute = true with RedirectStandardOutput = true
you have to reproduce what the runtime does.

Look at the source code of
ves_icall_System_Diagnostics_Process_Start_internal in
mono/mono/metadata/process.c

The most important is this:

#ifdef PLATFORM_WIN32
  spath = g_getenv ("COMSPEC");
  shell_args = "/c %s";
#else
  spath = g_getenv ("SHELL");
  shell_args = "-c %s";
#endif

You can get the shell executable from an environment variable and use /c
or -c depending on the platform.

There is nothing in UseShellExecute dependent code that you couldn't
reproduce. And I think you are using Linux only because the command line
itself uses GNU utilities so you don't have to create platform independent
code if you don't need it.
